Y2K Digicam Flash

Works with: Gemini · ChatGPT (any AI image editor)

Noisy, flashy, oversaturated — the Y2K digicam look that's everywhere again.

Make this photo look like it was taken on an early-2000s digital camera with flash. Keep my exact facial features, do not change my face. Harsh direct flash, slightly noisy low-resolution texture, oversaturated colors, red-eye-reduction glow, a timestamp in the corner, candid party framing with a dark background.

How to use it

1. Open Gemini or ChatGPT and attach your photo.
2. Paste the prompt below — tweak details like clothing or setting if you like.
3. If the face drifts, add: 'Do not alter my facial features in any way.'
4. Save the result — then animate it with a Step 2 prompt.
